ICP® hearing systems for noisy workplaces

Hearing protection meets hearing system

Conventional hearing aids are not permitted for use at high-noise workplaces. The AS Hörluchs® ICP® (Insulating Communication Plastic) hearing systems are permitted by construction law for use at high-noise workplaces. The system consists of a hearing aid with a specially developed high-noise program and an approved hearing protection plastic (SOWEI ICP®).

The hearing system is therefore 100% PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) and 100% medical device, which is listed in the Register of Medical Devices. Thus the hearing aid can be used to its full extent in the private environment.

ICP® BTE

The hearing system

The ICP® system is suitable for noisy workplaces as it compensates for existing hearing loss. It also compensates for the resulting over-attenuation in the main perception range without damaging the hearing.

ICP® TIK®

Hearing protection and hearing system

The ICP® TiK® (“deep in the canal”) disappears almost invisibly into the ear canal and therefore does not interfere with the wearing of safety goggles or helmets. It is also perceived by colleagues as hearing protection and not as a hearing aid.

ICP® hearing systems are always supplied with a hearing protection earmould. The new THERMOtec® hearing protection earmould offers many advantages.

“Despite my hearing loss, the ICP® hearing system allows me to continue working in noisy environments.”
